Edging # 12

One of the treasures I got from my book purchase from the Manitoba Crafts Museum and Library was two photo albums with clipping and a few samples of tatting patterns. I think they may be from Burda or Anna magazine. Anyhow, I decided to start playing around with this one.

I added beads and was trying to make a bracelet. I did too many repeats though, because I didn't account for the space the clasp would need.

About Me

I've been tatting since I was 15. I learned how in 4-H. I was determined to learn how to flip that silly knot. With lots of unpicking and practice (tatting instead of doing my homework) I finally got it figured out. But I have so much to learn. I got pretty excited with myself when I learned how to make split rings - I thought that was magical. Now with the internet, I'm finding out how much I don't know. Until just recently, I didn't know any real humans who could tat other than the lady who taught me so I only saw other people's tatting in antique shops or via exchanges.
